Schumer kicks into reelection mode
By Alexander Bolton - 03/29/21 06:00 AM EDT Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) isn't leaving anything to chance as he heads into his 2022 reelection campaign.
Schumer won his fourth Senate term in 2016 with 70 percent of the vote, but 19 months out from Election Day he’s already working all-out like a first-term senator in a battleground state.
After a grueling five-week work period during which Congress passed President Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan and wrapped up work on filling his Cabinet — a busy stretch that came on the heels of former President Trump’s second impeachment trial — Schumer might feel like he’s earned a little downtime.
Instead, Schumer told reporters he will be traveling around New York during the two-week April recess as part his goal to visit all 62 counties in the state this year.
